Cowboys' Dorance Armstrong: Two sacks in Week 1 win
Armstrong recorded three tackles, including two sacks, in Sunday's 40-0 rout of the Giants.
It was a huge night for the Dallas defense, and Armstrong tied Osa Odighizuwa for the team lead in sacks as the Cowboys' pass rush brought down Daniel Jones seven times in total. Armstrong piled up a career-high 8.5 sacks in 2022, and he could reach double digits this season as offenses scramble to try and find a way to slow down Micah Parsons, leaving plenty of holes for the Cowboys' other pass rushers.

Cowboys' Dorance Armstrong: Sits once again
Armstrong (hamstring) did not practice Thursday, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Armstrong missed time previously during camp due to a hamstring injury, although he did ultimately return to practice Monday. It's unclear if the team is choosing to limit him out of caution or if he aggravated the injury, and how much time extra time, if any, the 26-year-old may miss.

Cowboys' Dorance Armstrong: Sits out practice
Armstrong is dealing with a hamstring injury, Todd Archer of ESPN reports.
Armstrong missed practice on Monday due to tightness in his hamstring, though the injury is not thought to be serious. The 2018 fourth-round pick is coming off a career year, logging 33 tackles (17 solo) in 17 games while registering a career-high 8.5 sacks. Once healthy, the 26-year-old will look to continue providing solid depth behind DeMarcus Lawrence and Micah Parsons during the 2023 campaign.

Cowboys' Dorance Armstrong: Emerges as pass-rush threat
Armstrong recorded 33 tackles (17 solo), including a career-high 8.5 sacks, through 17 regular-season games in 2022. He added a forced fumble and two fumble recoveries.
With offensive lines focusing a lot of energy on trying to slow down Micah Parsons, the Cowboys' other pass rushers found a lot of success winning 1-on-1 matchups. Armstrong was no exception, as the fifth-year defensive end came into the season with only 7.5 career sacks. He has one more year left on his current contract, and another strong campaign opposite Parsons could set Armstrong up for a big payday in 2024, assuming Dallas doesn't sign him to an extension before then.

Cowboys' Dorance Armstrong: Set to play Week 16
Armstrong (knee) has been ruled active for Saturday's game versus Philadelphia, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Armstrong was temporarily forced out during Sunday's loss to the Jaguars with a knee injury, which kept him limited in each practice leading up to Saturday's contest. The fifth-year defensive end has logged 25 tackles, eight sacks, one forced fumble and two fumble recoveries over 14 games this season, so his availability will be a major boost with Sam Williams (concussion) already inactive Week 16.
